Y/N might go insane if she has to live in this overcrowded cabin any longer.

She was so exhausted, but she could not sleep. And she was on the floor, so the hard ground was bruising her shoulders and hips. Her pillow sucked as well, and she was freezing in the threadbare blanket they gave her even though it was summer.

She had been at camp Half-Blood for a month, but she knew some people she had met in the Hermes cabin had been there for a year and still had no clue who their parents were. They had to be the god and goddess of snoring and coughing in sleep, because it was practically louder at night than during the day.

"Come up here." She heard someone whisper, and she jumped, not expecting it. She looked up to see Luke, scooted against the wall of his bed on the bottom bunk. She sighed and stood, climbing into the bed next to him. His sheets were much warmer, his pillow softer. She felt herself melting into the bed.

"How do you sleep with this?" She whispered, struggling to see Luke's face in the low light. It was nice to have someone her age, since a lot of the campers were younger and even they had been there for years. Y/N felt so out of place. She knew enough to know her godly parent was not a major god, since she had been able to live that long in the mortal world. She had almost found Camp Half-Blood on accident, running from a monster before a satyr found her and guided her. It wasn't like she had the greatest life at home, but not having the option to go back, only having Camp Half-Blood now, it made her upset.

"You'll get used to it." Luke told her, a smirk on his face. She shuddered as a breeze swept past her shoulders and he pulled the thick blanket up. "I could hear you shivering on the floor, though."

"Shut up!" She whispered, pushing him slightly. Luke had been her first friend, and he had quickly become the best friend she'd ever had.

And he was really, really cute.

"You're lucky you haven't been claimed by Ares or Hephaestus. Their cabins are always freezing and the blankets are basically chainmail." Luke joked, and Y/N covered her mouth as she giggled.

"I bet Aphrodite has nice, fuzzy blankets." Y/N said dreamily, and Luke laughed. "What, you don't think I'm pretty enough to be a daughter of Aphrodite?" She asks, smile on her face.

"If you didn't tell me your mother was mortal, I would have immediately guessed you were Aphrodite's daughter." He sounds so earnest when he says it that Y/N's cheeks heat.

"What minor gods are there?" Y/N asks to change the subject. She's pretty sure she's not Luke's sibling, but not knowing who her godly parent is leaves her scared to get close with anyone.

"There's Asclepius, but no one's been claimed by him in awhile. I think you're most likely to be daughter of Adonis." There he goes again, and Y/N puts her head in the pillow.

"Adonis, god of beauty and desire?" She asks, shaking her head. "Is there a god of insomnia?" She asks, seeing the red light from the sunlight begin to come through the window.

"There's Hypnos, but he's the god of sleep. He's who you'd appeal to." Luke answered, his eyes dropping as he starts to fall asleep. She smiles closing her own eyes but not getting any sleep.

"You're so dead!" Trevor yells, jolting Y/N. She had been lost in her head, not asleep but not exactly awake either. She was facing Luke, who was still asleep, and Y/N turned to see his brother standing over them, smirking. Trevor had the top bunk, and he gets up early, so the rest of the cabin was starting to wake up again.

"Shit," Y/N muttered, getting up. She was clumsy, and she took the comforter with her as she fell to the ground. This woke Luke up fully, and he sat straight up and turned to Trevor.

"Go away." Luke said simply, getting out of bed to help Y/N up and put his comforter back on his bed.

"What will you give me to not tell Chiron?" Trevor smirks as Y/N starts to pack up her stuff.

"I'll tell you what I will give you if you do." Luke mutters, and Trevor just leaves.

"I'm guessing campers aren't allowed to share beds?" Y/N smiles, not really caring if Chiron finds out. Luke had told her that the biggest punishment was losing dessert privileges, so she wasn't worried about it.

"It's generally frowned upon." Luke said as he opened up his drawers under his bed, grabbing his bright orange t-shirt and a new pair of jeans. Y/N grabbed her clothes for the day and her stuff for a shower and walked to the bathrooms with Luke. They parted when they got to the men's door, but Y/N didn't even make it to the girls side before Silena called her name. The daughter of Aphrodite had a large smile on her face, and Y/N was instantly worried.

"I heard from a little birdie that you spent the night in Luke's bed." Silena smirked, and Y/N shook her head.

"Where did you hear that from?" She had left the cabin about two minutes ago, and the gossip had already spread to other cabins.

"I would never reveal my sources." She said coyly, which made Y/N slightly angry. She wasn't sure why Silena wouldn't just tell her. "But you just confirmed it anyway."

"I just have insomnia." Y/N rolled her eyes, looking over to the flowers growing. She noticed a bright orange flower, and she thought it was the prettiest she'd ever seen.

"That's ironic," Silena said, and when Y/N looked over her friend was looking above her head. Y/N looked up to see a glowing spiral with two strikes through the end. "The daughter of the god of sleep has insomnia." Silena bowed, and Y/N's eyes widened.

"You're joking." She muttered, looking from the symbol to the campers around that were now kneeling.

"Y/N, daughter of Hypnos!" Chiron announced. The look on his face though made her realize that someone had told him about her night.

"I have insomnia!" Y/N shouted, turning around to see even more campers behind her. "I can't be the daughter of the god of sleep!" She yelled, heart racing. She had wanted to be claimed, of course, but this was before she knew that her father would be a minor god, that she would have to stay in the Hermes cabin. She had been really hoping for Apollo or something.

"Strange," Luke said from behind Y/N. She turned to see him, wet curls from his quick shower. He had a smirk on his face, and she shook her head slightly.

"Strange considering Trevor found you asleep this morning." Some kid yelled out, causing two dirty looks to be sent his way.

"We'll have to arrange a cabin for you to stay in." Chiron said with a stern look, and Y/N blinked.

"What just happened?" She whispered as everyone began to disperse, blinking rapidly. "This has to be some kind of joke."

"Congratulations," Luke says as he comes up to her. She spins, and he's smirking. She scowls at him, eyes crinkling in a way that makes him smile. "Honestly, I should have known." He shakes his head.

"I think the insomnia really throws ya off." She shrugs, stepping closer to him.

"Yeah, but you have this calming effect," He starts, reaching out and letting a hand trail down her arm.

"I guess," She whispers, moving even closer. She has no idea what he's saying, but she knows she can't ruin the moment by asking. Her skin is electric where he touches her.

"Explains why I can fall asleep so easily with you." He says. "I just thought I felt safe and comforted." He smirked, and she could feel her face heating up.

"If only you could help me sleep." She says, feeling the exhaustion seep into her brain.

"Well, Chiron isn't gonna let you stay in the Hermes cabin. I think you should petition for the Aphrodite cabin. You'd fit right in, they have fluffy blankets." He lists off, then moves impossibly closer, till their faces are almost touching. "Plus, they'll cover for me or you if we were to sneak out, or if we both wanted the fluffy blankets." He shrugs, and she smiles.

"I think that's a great idea." She leans her chin up, and she can see his eyes drop to her lips. She wants it, more than anything, but she won't make the first move. She can't make herself.

Luckily, Luke leans in for her. Their lips touch, and it feels like fireworks exploding inside her body as their lips move in tandem. Her hands move to his broad shoulders, his hands going to her waist. There's whistling and cheers, and Y/N breaks apart as she realizes they have an audience. Her face is on fire, and she hides in Luke's chest.

"Different cabins!" Mr. D yells, and Y/N can't help but laugh.

They will not be staying in different cabins.
